Tell me, when the Republicans maintain control in the midterms are you going to maintain your safety? Or will you just be completely absorbed by your cognitive dissonance?
Isnt this objectively trash? It just averages all the scores into one score. Problem is 90% of the media is owned by left democrat jews. It skews the score massively. The newest scores from several center left sites say hes 47%, which is higher than obamas was. You can't just score dump a bunch of third rate sites together and pretend thats the real number. People definitely have an agenda here.
A majority of the data apparently comes from you gov, which is a basically an unknown internet only polling company that is based in the UK. Not sure how that is relevant to understand how the American voting population is going to vote.
His model of the electoral college (the only thing that matters) didn't have the final results of the tally within his own self reported confidence interval. Failed model
you understand the electoral college is winner take all, and Trump won multiple swing states by razor thin margins, correct?
Dont you think any model should include this as a possibility? Nate didn't even model what happened as possible, which is completely stupid because they are called swing states for a fucking reason.
It's funny because you know this and are just grasping at straws to try to protect your statistics Jesus. Look he had a good run, but for some reason he decided to destroy his model. Probably to prevent the leftist horde from hanging him for saying Trump had a chance to win.
This is your brain on Trumpism, you are now the 3rd Trumptard to respond to me and reveal you have not even a basic comprehension of this subject, yet you still decided to engage on it.
Well it really depends by how much, doesnโt it? The party in power loses congressional elections the vast majority of the time. Assuming Democrats and Republicans both win every seat leaning towards them and split the toss ups 50/50, Dems win the house 220-215, which is a 28 seat swing. For reference, Republicans picked up 63 seats in 2010. And given most of the toss ups are Republican incumbents Iโd expect them to do a little better than 50/50, so Dems taking the house isnโt even close to a done deal.
538 and RCP seem to model the toss ups differently, which is interesting. I'd say they're still probably the favorite, but it would only require a small polling error for Republicans to eek out a majority.Here's how I'd categorize the possibilities, since you asked for a quantification:
Dems take >60 seats: Massive Trump defeat, Dems have huge majority, blue wave vindicated.
Dems take 41-59 seats: Trump defeat, Dems have a bigger majority than Reps do now.
Dems take 24-40 seats: Wash, Dems have narrow majority and probably break down into infighting over the new speaker because Pelosi won't have enough votes.
Dems take <23 seats: Trump victory, Reps keep majority, Dems go even more insane than they already are and self immolate.

When is Daddy going to be impeached?
1 IDFSHILL 2018-10-23
Idk why anyone wants him impeached tbh. Even if you're a partisan he'll drag the Republican party into the trenches.
You should want him in office.

1 IDFSHILL 2018-10-23
So if the GOP loses the house and governor seats in the upcoming midterm, are you going to admit Donald Trump is not a popular president?
1 throwaway-familyhelp 2018-10-23
OK now you're just getting desparate with the goal post shifting.
I mean, maybe, but the data doesn't support that
1 IDFSHILL 2018-10-23
What? The house is also going to shift.
Few things:
A) Obama wasn't popular going into the midterms either.
B) That's a single poll, the data does, in fact support my claim that Donald Trump is historically unpopular:
https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/trump-approval-ratings/
Why do you think looking at a single poll is a valid way to read polling?

Can you suck Nate's dick any harder lmao? I swear if Nate told you to kill your own mother with a 90% probably, you would probably do it.
Like for a failed statistician that can't even model the Presidential election properly I have no idea why people like you worship him.
1 IDFSHILL 2018-10-23
How is he a "failed statistician" lmao. Based on what? His model gave Trump a 30% to win.
His model also called pretty much every primary. And he correctly called the winner of 2 previous elections.
I'm actually convinced you have a severe learning disability, there's no way this is natural. There is no way you are actually this dumb.
How can you not even understand polling?

It literally did you mong. They correctly predicted that if PA, for example, went red, so too would the other "blue states."
As in PA has the same demographics as WA.
1 FearOfBees 2018-10-23
You're gladly ignoring the fact that left pollsters ask incriminating questions lowering his overall score.
1 IDFSHILL 2018-10-23
You understand that none of those questions are included in the poll tracker, correct?
1 FearOfBees 2018-10-23
The fucking site is in the image. We have no idea how 80% of these polls ask questions. Dont even tell me theres no chance theyre doing this.
1 IDFSHILL 2018-10-23
To be clear, you think 538 is basing approval rating on questions like "did this person lie" and you see no reason why that belief is retarded?
1 IDFSHILL 2018-10-23

You mean like all the mainstream media during the last election?
1 IDFSHILL 2018-10-23
The polls were literally within margin of error. They were more accurate in 2016 than in 2012.
1 FearOfBees 2018-10-23
The poll that said hillary had a 99.8% chance to win was in the margin of error? It wasn't even a close victory.
1 IDFSHILL 2018-10-23
I swear to god where do you people come from.
A) No, it wasn't a "poll" it was an election model, and 538 didn't even give Clinton a 99.8% to win, you made that up.
B) The polls had Clinton up by 3% nationally and she won the popular vote by nearly 3%. Meaning national polls were within margin of error:
